From Story to Stage
Posted by Adam Immerwahr on November 19th, 2009Last year, we sat down with David Thompson (who wrote the adaptation of A Christmas Carol that McCarter has been using) to discuss the play and how he adapted Dickens’ novella into what has become a favorite holiday-season entertainment throughout the entire region.
Does it feel like it’s too early for us to be talking about A Christmas Carol? In most places, the holiday season doesn’t start until after Thanksgiving. Right? But here at McCarter, we started rehearsals for A Christmas Carol in early November. So in one half of our building, it feels like Christmas Eve every day! So help us get into the mood—share your own favorite holiday stories and memories by posting them in the comments below (click on “comments” to get started).
